Abstract

A single-wall paper container for holding beverages is provided. The container comprises a side wall that is comprised of a single layer of paperboard. The container also comprises a bottom wall affixed to the side wall such that a liquid receptacle is thereby formed. The bottom wall and side wall both have exterior and interior surfaces. The container also includes a plurality of non-insulating impressed patterns. The impressed patterns are integrally formed into the side wall and are observable on the interior and exterior surfaces of the side wall. The impressed patterns are of sufficient depth to provide a non-uniform gripping surface on the side wall of the container.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS [0001] Not Applicable FEDERALLY SPONSORED RESEARCH OR DEVELOPMENT [0002] Not Applicable TECHNICAL FIELD [0003] The invention relates to a single-wall paper container, and more particularly to a single-wall paper cup with an integrally formed embossed or debossed side wall with improved grip-ability. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0004] The use of single-wall containers for use with hot and cold beverages and the like has become increasingly prevalent in connection with both commercial and consumer use. One reason for the increased demand for paper-based containers is that they allow more detailed marketing and advertising print than plastic or polystyrene bead foam cups. Additionally, paper-based containers are readily biodegradable, making them more environmentally friendly than, for example, polystyrene bead foam containers. [0005] In view of this increased demand and use, the beverage and container industries continue to search for ways to im...
